Teens’ kidnapper convicted of planning, committing abduction

December 31, 2014

The Judea military court on Wednesday convicted Marwan Kawasmeh, one of the two kidnappers of the three Israeli teens, after he confessed to planning and involvement in the murder of Gil-Ad Shaer, Eyal Yifrach and Naftali Frenkel in Gush Etzion in June. Kawasmeh admitted in his investigation to have funded the attack by transferring NIS 200,000 from a Hamas operative in Gaza to Hebron. He will be sentenced in a few weeks.
